Fact: Plaid is one of the must-have prints of the season! But it's not just hot for the holidays—the classic print has gotten a cool update. With so many awesome variations, you can totally find a piece in the pattern that fits your vibe perfectly. From a preppy skirt to punk-y pants, check out how to incorporate this trend into your closet now.

Plaid Pants: Red-and-green printed pants pants might be your dad's go-to look for the holidays, but they're also a staple of the '90s punk trend that's super in right now. The trick to making the look more edgy-rocker than...well, dorky dad is to go for a pair of printed skinnies. Then edge 'em up with cool creepers and a moto jacket. If your style is more trendy-tomboy than girly-grunge, just swap the band tee and moto for a high-collar shirt and a chunky cardigan. Add a pair of fun slipper loafers and you'll have the nerdy-chic look nailed! (Red + Green Check Treggings, $50, Topshop)

Flannel Shirt: A cozy boyfriend flannel will be your go-to this winter! Not only will it keep you toasty, but there are so many ways to rock this piece, too! Button it all the way up to the collar to nail the posh prepster look, or wear it unbuttoned over your fave graphic tee to score a low-key indie vibe! (Flannel Shirt, $29.95, H&M)
